I think you'll find this isn't just any standard calendar. And it's an *official* advent calendar also, having just signed a sponsorship deal with Heinz Spaghetti Hoops, so that Heinz Spaghetti Hoops has to be mentioned twice each time.

Young Jeremy said above that he's taping Lucy showing her shoe collection to Wiggy this afternoon, so he must've caught that new ident. Can he capture it? Was the scene of somewhere in Wales, or just countryside?



It was a beach.

I saw Wiggy's show, Lucy was on it but not talking about her shoes afterall, it was a painting her grandmother left her and her engagement ring that were her most prized possessions!

Nice to see you have put the delightful Catharine at Number 1 on you calender, you have obviously recognised she is the most important person at not only HTV but also the entire Welsh Media! Laughing

Did you see the ident?

LOL, according to Lucy, she's got a "nice flat in the bay". I wonder if it can be seen in the backdrop of Wales Today.

Yes 4 blocks/cubes, 3 in blue, 1 in yellow (in line with the ITV1 colours) on a beach in Wales, not sure what beach, maybe 3 cliff's!

Cant do a capture, I dont have a camera unfortunately

I hope it was Three Cliffs - my favourite beach, in Wales of course. Is there any music on the ident?

Lucy's wedding must be next year, can't imagine her wanting to wait very long -- and I do hope HTV mark it in some way. It'll be Catherine Zeta-Jones *all over again*, but with an annoying Welsh guy marrying her instead of a multi-million dollar ageing movie star. I hope Peanut is invited.

And surely being on door 24 is the most prestigious on an advent calendar? That's usually the biggest picture and chocolate for Christmas Eve? Having said that I've only made tomorrow's so far and I know for a fact I'm not here every day in December.

Hmm, you can have two or three at once then -- I know Whataday opens all his windows at once, and scoffs the chocolate. Rumour has it, he has a Buttons advent calendar in every room of his house. Tut, he has no patience.

Lucy's wedding is next year Dai. I'm surprised you haven't received your invite.

Whataday - they had the normal music on the ident! Sorry, I wish I could do a capture but I dont the facilities here, I really should get a camera and download the necessary technology, I could make pics of Cath, Juliet, Justina, James and Lucy every day then Laughing

TV Dragon - are you trying to say Catharine is 24th in line of the most important people in Wales? I demand Lucy is on number 24 then with Justina Simpson at number 23.

Yes Lucy's wedding is next year, will she remain Lucy Cohen or become Mrs Lucy Owen Confused:


JUSTINA SIMPSON IS LIVE ON HTV NEWS NOW! Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

What's normal music?

Well, contrary to the rest of the media, HTV female peeps seem always to take their married name, rather than keeping their maiden 'professional' name. So, probably. That scary voiceover man will be redundant, "with Looosy Oweeeen".

AFAIK, and I've only done two, doors 1-23 are just random, and 24 is the prestigious one -- but I've no idea who it'll be.

And it's not a camera you need to make captures, it's a tv card -- either a boxey thing you plug into your USB port, or something you put inside your PC tower. I'm sure that ident will be before Wiggy tomorrow was well.

And shame on you, Fred. I hope you feel sick.

And what does "shut up grammatic oil" mean? Curiosity has got the better of me.

The music usually on ITV1 celeb idents.

Actually looking at it again, im really not sure which beach it is, it might be three cliff's - there is some rocks at one side, and it looks like there is a big cliff the other side.
It sort of zooms out, you cant see the cliff's at first, just the sea

TV D Ive never made captures so I didnt know what you needed to do them, if I did get the necessary stuff to do it id make some caps of Justina Simpson and Catharine Evan-Williams Laughing

Yeah, but there are several different versions of the music. What did it sound like?
